article ruling from fonr to ten ceuts

This Of course diverts an immense
amount BIZ wheat aud works d great
injury to the town. Our wheat buyers
claim that they are paying all they
can afford. They say that when No.
Z northern, for instance, is quoted at
6s cents in Minneapolis, they cannot
afford to pay moro than 4S cents here,
the cost Of transportation being u
cents per bushel. The Duluth road
gives Aberdeen a natural advantage Of
about two cents per bustci, but even
this Is not enough to account for the
difference. We gness the amount Of

little more III Aberdeen and little less
hers than the market variants. But

SOME ODD
Ships of the Desert with Decidedly Out
landlsh Vehicles In Tow.

iandish Vehicles In Tow
At the time of my longest cruise
among the West Indian islands, IsPent
several weeks in Barbados and found
that private enterprise had established
in its queer little toy capital, Bridge
town, a small omnibus which piled
along the shore road between the town
and a favorite bathing place a few
miles beyond it, sheltered by a friend
Iy coral reef from the embarrassing at
tentions of the sharks. A very pict-
uresque turnout it was, we'll worthy OF
that plucky little islet, which, accord
ing to Captain Marryat, announced in
the crisis of the Napoleonic war that
''if all de world fight against England,
England nebber fear so long as Bar
BADGES 'tand tiff" The negro driver,
with his smart suit of navy blue, his
shining "stove-pipe" hat, his magnif-
CEN show of white teeth, and his
CHEEKY shout of Here, John, sar,"
would have made a choice study for
any painter. But for some reason or
other the venture did not pay, and l
have since heard that it has been
abandoned.
Even more picturesque, though in a
widely different style, was the peculiar
conveyance which we found in oper-
alton in the streets of Allahabad dur
ing our journey through Northern
India to Afghanistan. Even for India
it was a deadly outlandish affair. One
can fancy what a crowd would be col
lected in Broadway by the first
glimpse of a two-stOried omnibus with
its upper compartment filled with
brown-faced Hindoos, arrayed in all
colors of the rainbow, and piloted by a
neutrality-suspicious. driver in a
blue turban, long, white robe, and
crimson sash. But as if all this were
not enough, this singular vehicle was
drawn by neither horse nor mule, but
by Il genuine Bactrian camel, whose
huge ridgy back reached almost as
high as the top of the dOuble-tier car
which he drew. The sight Of the
camel as a beast of draft was not, in
deed, wholly new to me, for in crossing
the deserts of central Tartary during
the Khiva expedition had had a team Of
camels harnessed to my wagon three
abreast, and the spectral outlines OF
their long, gaunt limbs and misshapen
bodies fitting over the interminable
sands in the titful moonlight form a
picture worthy of Vasili Veresht-
chagin. A camel omnibus, however,
was still a novelty TO me, but before
our Indian tour ended 1 had seen the
''ship of the desert" figuring in
another capacity more extraordinary
still. While we were at Cawnpore one
of our acquaintance there, a young
civil engineer, had to start off unex-
pectedly n evening just after night
fall in order to survey the route Of a
projected railway to the border fortress
Of Jhansi. We went out to see him
off and found to our no small amuse-
ment that the ''dakgharri" (post
chaise) which ne had hired for the
journey was drawn by a full-grown
camel of fraudulent appearance, pro-
testing against the duty assigned to it
with a succession Of those harsh, mn
pleasant screams which, like an En-
glishman's oath, seem to express every
possible variety of emotion. Cor. NJ

1t is reported that the coal men of
New York and Pennsylvania have
made a combination to advance the
price of coal to a point heretofore un-
heard o.. Chicago dealers predict that
anthracite coal will sell for SO to $40
per ton in that city before snow flies.
This means that hard coal will cost
$l4 to SIS per ton here. The scarcity
of the article in Chicago at present
gives the rumor good foundation.

TALK about the high prices of farm
machinery-the only wonder is that
they are not higher In the first place
the manufacturers demand and are
entitled to a good profit; then the
wholesalers and retailers must have
their share. But if these items alone,
together With the cost Of manufacture,
introduction aud transportation, were
the only considerations, machinery
would still be 50 per cent cheaper
than it is To bis legitimate selling
price the manufacturers adds 20 per
cent for bad debts and about rs per
cent for the cost Of collecting the
others. This is what makes machine

leave that part to congress.
This, however, Is TO be noted: there Is
not In the message word that can be con-
strued into even the remotest endorsement
OF the mildest theories Of these docttnaires
of the Golden school who alone can be
honestly called free traders On the con

Gates any purpose or thought of favoring OF

qualifedly, as settled policy of the gov
eminent, the tariff as a means TO raise It's
necessary revenues, and as unqualiiiedly its
unavoidable incident, the protection to the
extent of such tariff tax of our home man

But "what's the matter" with the Presi-
dent, and what has brought down upon
him all this tempest of vituperation and
misrepresentatio lying howl of free
trade, hostilities to our industries, &c, &c,
Is one little paragraph of the message, as
follows:
As the volume and diversity Of our ma

added 70 those who desire continuation
OF the advantages which they conceive the
present system of tariff taxation directly
affords them. SO stubbornly have all eff

While this language is as gentle as a

fact that the whole brood of tariff benefici.
aries are linked together as one huge mer-
less octopus, of a massiveness and vindic-
tiveness such as Victor Hugo in his widest

that, and no doubt the great devil fish is

less tariff octopus that plaques the land.

A DEVELOPMENT.

A County Board meeting occasionally de-
velops some very curious facts and condi-
lions. Sup. Lewis made such develop
ment yesterday afternoon when bill Of
1899 IS came in from the formal concern
land was paid) for printing 5000 copies of
a LA sale County Financial Report"
edited by the finance committee; that is,
Maierhofer, Dryer and Norton.
Lewis couldn't understand who author
lied the WORK. he had forgotten that at
the September meeting the committee
asked and was given power, In connection
with a report In the Treasurers report ito
publish the foregoing report (Treasurers
together with the items pertaining thereto
In pamphlet FORM
then-oh, very. But the Board didn't then
understand so we'll the capacity of this he
roic committee they didn't appreciate Its
gormandizing appetite for per diem and
mileage fees-oh, no, not nearly so we'll as
they do now. We take II for granted the
Board can tell now when house falls on
them-they ought to, at any rate. So In
september the Board told the committee
to 60 ahead-and they went. 1t was, Let
'er 60, Gallagher" and they let er 60. You
bet, they did. The result is pamphlet of
most diabolical mien as specimen of the
topographic artand still more oppressive as
an array of figures. The usual Board pro-
ceedings are sufficiently heroic; but this
report Is simply overwhelming.
To look at IL, one would think il ought
to contain new matter enough to worry the
secretary of the treasury; but after all it is
very innocent when you come to suck the
juice out of It. The gigantic labors of the
committee I'VE will find out today when
the bill comes In from the committee just
how much they cost have resulted in
what? Why, when 1t Is analysed, II is
merely republication of the lists of
county orders drawn at each of the four
sessions of this board, as shown by the
official proceedings published quarterly In
all the papers of the county. The only
new matter of any kind Is the simple ad-
dition of the salaries of the county officers
not audited by the board, and their depu-
ties, the cost of the burnt record" chest
nut, and the footings of the whole! a work
that man Of good common sense could
have compiled In two days time! All of
the rs pages of this stupenduous piece of
nonsense (or jobbery) have been published
ooioic III cAaSuy INC saihe way, cASopt Z
pages, and all of the 76 pages are abso-
lutely worthless for any information
except these four pages, which is all the
report should have continued. Yet here Is
piece of SIN artness that, aside from the
per diem and milage OF the editors, has cost
the county $500 l5!-a price, by the way.
at least Sl49.15 larger than any other print
ing office in the county would have had
the hardihood to make oath 10 as proper
charge.
II behooves committee that makes the
pretensions of anti-boodlerism exhibited by
Norton Il al. after this kind of an eXhiDi-
ton, 10 quit putting ON pious airs; for if
this indecent expenditure has not the
rankest smell of nasty jobbery about 1t
there never was such an expenditure.
